I was wondering if the full Moon in Scorpio will be a heavy hitter for those with no Scorpio in their charts.

With empty tenth, eleventh and twelve houses as well, what influences are expected?

I`m feeling optimistic and energetic.

When the Moon is in Scorpio, it's supposed to be a time to do things with passion, and it's a good time for concentration and focus. It's good for problem-solving and research.

If one has Natal Scorpio influences, then it may or may not affect them for the better, but one should be aware of highly emotional confrontations no matter what - from themselves as well as others.

I have Merc/Mars/Neptune in Scorpio, and if I stop and sort of "tune in", it's as though answers are COMING TO ME as the psychic vibes in the air are more intense.

Think of it as there being more water in the atmosphere - water is a good conductor of electricity. Therefore, even if one is mostly Air, they will feel everything intensely and maybe recoil from others who are too emotional at this time.

Again, off the top of my head, if one had a lot of Earth, the Water would penetrate it, making emotions richer and fuller. With Fire, the Water could extinguish it or create steam. The Fire may even warm the Water.

If one has a lot of Water in their Natal, it might seem like just another day, but then again, it may make an already emotionally intense person go overboard. Possessiveness, jealousy, etc.

If you are not comfortable expressing your emotions, then this time may make you want to hibernate and may seem to have the opposite affect. But in reality, you are just trying to hide your emotions from others or even yourself.

My Scorp neighbor came over too early this a.m. in his boxers and socks (A nice 28 degrees outside) He`d locked himself out of his house. Jeeze Louize, was he po`d. I my butt off. Not a good start for him...

This is my line up & what I`m looking at.

Planetary positions (natal)

Sun Aquarius 13°18'21 02 direct
Moon Virgo 20°41'55 08 direct
Mercury Aquarius 12°55'42 02 direct
Venus Aries 00°11'56 03 direct
Mars Pisces 25°44'38 02/3 direct
Mars is technically near the end of house 2 and is interpreted in house 3.
Jupiter Taurus 12°18'19 04 direct
Saturn Libra 27°17'32 09/10 stationary (R)
Saturn is technically near the end of house 9 and is interpreted in house 10.
Uranus Cancer 15°24'26 07 retrograde
Neptune Libra 23°52'03 09 retrograde
Pluto Leo 22°15'49 08 retrograde
True Node Aquarius 12°21'30 01/2 retrograde
True Node is technically near the end of house 1 and is interpreted in house 2.

Here's what my Pocket Astrologer ephemeris says about the transiting moon in Scorpio, which I'm sure is heightened with a full moon, eclipse, etc.:

"Moon in Scorpio is ruled by Mars and Pluto. Mars' influence brings out strong passions and Pluto shows very strong desires. People often get aggressive, critical, impatient and moody. There is a marked increase of intensity and a heightened sensitivity to personal offenses and insults. Remember that Scorpio has a suspicious and secretive nature. Avoid social complications. Beware of jealousy. Watch out for the Scorpio sting. Remember to forgive and forget. Be cautious interacting with the opposite sex; however, it could be a good time for an intense merging with another on a deep emotional level. The moon in Scorpio is a very bad time for surgical operations."
